(1) Subject to sub-paragraph (2) a pharmacist may at any time give notice in writing to the Board that he desires to withdraw his name from the pharmaceutical list and his name shall be removed therefrom at the expiration of three months from the date of such notice or of such shorter period as the Board may agree.
(2) Where representations are made to the Tribunal under the provisions of section 29 of the Act (disqualification of persons providing services) that the continued inclusion of a pharmacist in the pharmaceutical list would be prejudicial to the efficiency of the service, he shall not, except with the consent of the Secretary of State and subject to such conditions as the Secretary of State may impose, be entitled to withdraw his name from the list pending the termination of the proceedings on such representations.
(3) The name of any pharmacist whose business is carried on by representatives in accordance with the provisions of the Medicines Act 1968, shall not be removed from the list so long as the business is carried on by them in accordance with the provisions of that Act, and the representatives agree to be bound by the terms of service of the pharmacist.
